I would gladly trade the power gains for the ability to see my brake pads. Torque is overrated anyway

Guess you need a German car. Just about every German car I've ever owned, you can see the brake pads!

Sorry, a bit late to the party. What's the deal with seeing brake pads? I can see brake pads in PP Brembos on my BRZ.

It’s a forum inside joke from a while ago. Basically someone went on a rant about not being able to see the brake pads with the wheel on and it’s been a running joke ever since. |

Estimated for U.S. model: 6-speed manual: Premium 2,815 lbs. Limited 2,835 Automatic Premium 2,864 lbs. Automatic Limited 2,881 lbs. A 6-speed manual Limited '20 model is 2,798 lbs. So, the Limited '22 model will be approximately 37 lbs. heavier. I would say that it is not bad, but it could be better. |

I wonder how long until the aftermarket replaces the stick-on quarter panel trim with a piece that wraps around the whole wheel arch. Wide body yo!

Not sure what is the point to get these high and low angle shots with the big depth distortion. I guess it started with this silly photo of GR86.

Normal focal length gives you a different perceptions than those of your eyes. You have a prime example with the last Mazda 3: it’s c pillar seemed ugly by normal photo but you had another perception by live view. If you stay in front of the car at the distance of your photo, you have a wide perception of the hood and pushed depth by live view, almost like your pic. |
